This tiny restaurant is just across the road from the Queen Victoria Pub in Valletta and is apparently very popular. We chose to go about 10 minutes after it had opened one evening and found the inside tables already taken, but there was a table available outside – we were lucky we got this as everyone who arrived after us could not be accommodated. I think they take reservations though.

Really nice sounding menu, we chose a mixed cheese and meat board as our starter – this was huge and possibly one of the best that I have had, certainly since I was in Rome – three types of meat, three types of cheese, pate, olives and crackers. Gorgeous. Full of promise that delivered.

Made a bit of a (good) mistake for my main – ordered the chicken ravioli and decided to have it served in a bowl made of pizza dough. Both the ravioli and the bowl were fantastic – really rich flavours. However, I overestimated my ability to eat meat and cheese, pasta and pizza and therefore could not finish. 😊 This is not a bad position to be in, but I think next time I’d have the pasta without the pizza dough bowl if I’m also having a starter. We live and learn.

I would certainly go back to this place again if in Valletta in future.

Oh and we had a lovely bottle of wine to accompany.

The price, overall, was less than 100 Euro for two, which I thought was very reasonable.

Well done. Two paws up.
